Has Hour Man appeared in the New 52?

>>81593443
Why won't they give him back his age and muscular build? I'm tired of the fucking 20-something look they've been going for. That's not Superman.

The half-cape was SO GOOD. The hood will never be able to replace it in my heart.
>>
>>81596753
I think the Hood is the best example if what is wrong with the character now, it replace so something iconic and unique about the characters and just gaves him something generic.

Not just the costume.
>>
>>81597130
Well that's the thing, there is no costume, it's just lobo wearing whatever the fuck he wants

Which sometimes is gloves, sometimes is a huge raggedy cape, and sometimes is a massive mechanical cuff of some kind

And a few times was nothing at all
>>
>>81593443
I agree. It kind of dumbfounds me that people prefer the New 52 because he "wears his underwear on the inside now"

He doesn't, they're just colored blue; making it look arguably worse, like his boxers are too tight or something.

If you're going to complain about red boxers, why stop there? Why have red boots? Or a belt, when you don't put anything in it?

>tfw Hal is getting his pre flashpoint costume back
bless
>>
>>81593395
I think a lot of the problems is that the New 52 and Marvel Now costumes are all "moviefied" so they don't quite look as good in the comics as they would on screen. I say we keep them in their respective mediums, really.

I was reading the Sinestro series and keked when I saw that they put Hal and Sinestro in their Pre-Flashpoint costumes. What was the point of adding unnecessary lines to it if people were just going to ignore that later?
>>
>>81598310
Hal's costume was too perfect to tweak much so they just added a couple lines on the shoulders that artists forgot frequently

Sinestro's was mostly the same although the removed the armband, dunno if that was a "well we gotta change SOMETHING" choice so much as it was a "he has a solo now and we don't want him to evoke Hitler anymore"
